A handrail is a rail that is designed to be grasped by the hand so as to provide safety or support. [1] In Britain, handrails are referred to as banisters. Handrails are commonly used while ascending or descending stairways and escalators in order to prevent injurious falls, and to provide bodily support in bathrooms or similar areas.
The term banister (also bannister) refers to a baluster or to the system of balusters and handrail of a stairway. [3] It may be used to include its supporting structures, such as a supporting newel post. [4] In the UK, there are different height requirements for domestic and commercial balustrades, as outlined in Approved Document K. [5]
Stairs are not suitable for wheelchairs and other vehicles. A stairlift is a mechanical device for lifting wheelchairs up and down stairs. For sufficiently wide stairs, a rail is mounted to the treads of the stairs, or attached to the wall. A chair is attached to the rail and the person on the chair is lifted as the chair moves along the rail.
A traditional stair carpet was characterized by not covering the full width of the stair but leaving the underlying wood−stone−tile of the tread and risers open to view on the sides. This was sometimes simply to save on carpet and sometimes to expose features while preventing wear to the underlying surface.
